LOCKPORT – A man who violated the terms of court-supervised drug treatment by being caught with more than a half-ounce of cocaine was sentenced Friday by Niagara County Judge Matthew J. Murphy III to three years in prison and two years of post-release supervision.
Jeffrey M. Tretter, 21, of Witmer Road, Wheatfield, had pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of attempted fourth-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance in the wake of the Oct. 3 traffic stop in Wheatfield that turned up just over a half ounce of cocaine and $1,319 that he was required to forfeit.
That ended Tretter’s stint in the judicial diversion program of court-supervised drug treatment, which he started in January 2013 after he pleaded guilty to having about a quarter-ounce of cocaine as he sat in a car outside an apartment house on Pine Street in Lockport as police raided it May 15, 2012.
